There is a group of colonial documents at PARO, (acc.# B 1251 CO.226/36) concerning an attempt by settlers to regain some passage money. In these, Carol Foster Stanish, cstanish@hfx.eastlink.ca, found the following partial passenger lists for the vessels "Curlew", from Scotland, and the "Jane", from Greenock, Scotland.

The "Jane" left Greenock Sat. July 4th., and landed at Quebec around the 24th of Aug. The 26th of August, she left Quebec, and landed in Montreal the 28th. She departed Montreal Sep 8th., carrying the following families to P.E.I., landing in Rustico, on the first of October, 1818.

Carol's information is in brackets; this family of Stewarts (from Foss, Perthshire, Scotland, and who settled near Brackley Point Rd. at Harrington) are known to have both a Betsy and an Elizabeth, but the documents are a little confusing on these two; She has not listed Betsy.

"We left Maines of Foss, (Perthshire) Scotland June 23rd 1818. Left Greenock
Sat. July 4th, landed at Quebec Mon. morning 24th of Aug. Tuesday 26 of Aug. we
left Quebec and landed at Montreal the 28th of Aug. We left Montreal 8th of Sept.
and landed at Rustico P.E.I. Thursday the 1st of October 1818. Settled on land
at Brackley Point Road in April 1819."
